'''Coronavirus Update''': Freecycle is a global community, and right now our community is under threat from a global pandemic. While we remain committed to reducing waste and keeping items out of the landfill, our main concern is the health and well-being of our members. We've asked local moderators to refocus local groups on crisis info and updates: local testing sites, shopping restrictions, critical info, and to only allow items --where permitted-- which are essential/basic necessities. Click on “Contact moderator” at the top of your local group page to pass on info for wider dissemination to other local members. Or, put the info in an OFFER post to the group.

Post only essentials, avoid contact by leaving items out, and disinfect items when leaving or picking up. The posting of critical necessities --where permitted-- may enable the homebound to avoid stores, cashiers, ATMs and direct social contact during this time of great need.

'''Information Coronavirus''': Freecycle est une communauté mondiale, et actuellement notre communauté est sous la menace d'une pandémie mondiale. Tout en restant engagés dans la réduction des déchets en empêchant des objets d'être jetés dans la nature, notre préoccupation première est la santé et le bien-être de nos membres. Nous avons demandé aux modérateurs de recentrer leur groupe sur l'information et les mises à jour en temps de crise : sites de dépistages locaux, restrictions d'achat, informations critiques, et seulement d'autoriser (où c'est permis) le don d'objets uniquement essentiels. Cliquez sur "Contacter les modérateurs" en haut de votre groupe local pour leur envoyer des informations à transmettre aux autres membres du groupe. Ou, postez-les dans un message OFFRE.
 
 
 
De plus, les messages individuels seront modérés pour s'assurer qu'ils respectent les demandes gouvernemenales locales. Nous demandons à tous les membres de faire extrêmement attention en participant à Freecycle. Ne postez que des choses essentielles, évitez de vous mettre en contact en déposant les objets à l'extérieur, et désinfectez les objets quand vous les déposez ou les récupérez. La publication de messages pour des objets de première nécessité - quand c'est permis - peut permettre au foyer d'éviter les magasins, comptoirs, distributeurs et le contact direct avec des personnes durant cette période.
